Nafiu Garba - PeerSpot reviewer
It offers different licensing types that allow you to extend the services to clients; it lets you look into device performance and optimization and helps apply best practices
What I like best about IDERA Uptime Infrastructure Monitor is that it offers different licensing types. Hence, it allows my organization to extend the services to clients and not just use the solution within the organization. My organization can leverage IDERA Uptime Infrastructure Monitor to learn more about how clients perform because the solution lets you monitor and optimize devices and apply best practices.
Michael Wenn - PeerSpot reviewer
Offers comprehensive monitoring and tool consolidation but integration complexity needs improvement
There is room for improvement in the speed of setting up the service and integrating PowerPacks. Although these prebuilt features are great, there is considerable complexity in bringing them together to create a unified dashboard. Even with many good integrations and deep visibility, the implementation takes time, especially when it doesn't involve these integrations. While some other companies have easier APIs, using this solution demands significant expertise. It's challenging for new customers to implement independently. The implementation speed of non-PowerPack or non-out-of-the-box integrations should be improved. Additionally, the AI automation feature is not yet very rich due to resource constraints supporting a wide platform.

Pros

"My organization can leverage IDERA Uptime Infrastructure Monitor to learn more about how clients perform because the solution lets you monitor and optimize devices and apply best practices."
"Dynamic Component Mapping is key and unique."
"The power flow is great."
"Science Logic provides distributed and all-in-one concept in monitoring, you can easily customize the features in this product."
"One of the valuable features is rapid dashboards."
"Provides agentless monitoring so there's no need to install the agent on each server."
"The most valuable features of ScienceLogic are AI and machine learning."
"It has good monitoring capabilities across cloud environments, data centers, and hybrid environments."

Cons

"What I want to improve in IDERA Uptime Infrastructure Monitor is the community aspect, where IDERA would provide customers with updates on functionalities, what comes next, what IDERA Uptime Infrastructure Monitor upgrades would be released, etc. I also want the sustainability of IDERA Uptime Infrastructure Monitor to improve."
"It doesn't have the complete application-level topology. It could have service topology and business service monitoring. I would like to see how business service monitoring will function with agent-based installation, and how flexible and business-oriented it is for service modeling and service infrastructure. I have a lot of experience in using business service monitoring, service topology, and service hierarchy functionalities in similar products from BMC and Micro Focus (OpenView), and I want to see how these functionalities will look like in ScienceLogic."
"ScienceLogic does not have application monitoring. We definitely need something integrated within ScienceLogic to monitor applications so that we don't have to rely on monitoring tools to monitor other applications. At least the ones that are market leaders, such as SAP, Oracle, and others."
"Integrating observability and APM monitoring into the overall portfolio would be beneficial."
"They should improve their support process and add chat."
"The product must educate its strategic partners for deployment."
"Integrating observability and APM monitoring into the overall portfolio would be beneficial."
"We want to understand: how does the back end work? What if some problem occurs? What we can do? They need to provide more information."
"One important area we feel could be improved is the UI. It takes a lot of clicks to do very simple tasks."

"My company has an enterprise-level contract with ScienceLogic, so it is available to my organization at a good price."
"Plan for adding more to it. Once you see EM7 in action, you will want to keep adding systems to monitor."
"It comes with the OS built in, so no need to purchase an OS license or DB license."
"Its price could be lower, but for what you pay, you got a lot of value from its features and functionalities. Customers always want a discount or a cheaper solution."
"The pricing model for ScienceLogic could improve."
